  34 <P> Provides method implementations with 
  35  access to the identity of the object on which the 
  36  method was invoked. The <code>Current</code> package
  37  supports servants that implement multiple objects, 
  38  but can be used within the context of POA-dispatched 
  39  method invocations on any servant. To provide location 
  40  transparency, ORBs are required to support use of 
  41  <code>Current</code> in the context of both locally and remotely 
  42  invoked operations. An instance of <code>Current</code> can be 
  43  obtained by the application by issuing the 
  44  <code>CORBA::ORB::resolve_initial_references("POACurrent")</code> 
  45  operation. Thereafter, it can be used within the 
  46  context of a method dispatched by the POA to obtain 
  47  the <code>POA</code> and <code>ObjectId</code> that identify the object on 
  48  which that operation was invoked.
